Peace in the Park: Healing with Mother Nature

his year has cultivated extra stress at so many levels. With limited options to relieve that stress during the pandemic, many people are finding solace in gardens, parks, and even looking out the window at nature. Research proves that access to nature is good for human health and well-being, and Mother Nature herself needs healing too-she suffers from pollution and climate change just like we do. Our session will discuss the benefits of being in nature, and it will present some case studies of green space projects in Detroit neighborhoods. We’ll talk about how this helps people and nature alike.
